Copper coil

Been considering going back on birth control as a back up. Want to do everything to prevent getting pregnant again for a while.

Thinking about the copper coil but have heard so many mixed things about it which is causing me a bit of anxiety and putting me off.

Just looking for people’s personal experiences on this and if it’s something worth getting xx

Maternity leave- bonus pay

At my company I normally get a bonus annually in March. I went on Mat leave in October 2025. I was expecting my bonus to come through this month however just checked my payslip and no bonus which I was really disappointed. My line manager has left the company just right after I went on mat leave so I don’t have a manager to contact. Has anyone been in similar situation? Am I being treated unfairly because I’m on Mat leave hence the no bonus pay?

Cheating man

I am currently 29 weeks pregnant and my man has been cheating on me since I was 16 weeks pregnant. I am getting fat and he doesn’t want to have seks with fat people. He says he loves me and that’s Just casual seks without meaning and he is bored most of the time. But he has multiple dating apps, random girls on Snapchat and instagram. He currently is in Spain for work with a friend and he is also going to have seks with woman there. He says it will become less or stops when our daughter is born. But I don’t know what to do or feel. I just love him so much.

If I don’t like my ob can I just request at the hospital to not have my ob there?

I really don’t like my ob attitude. Can I just show up at the hospital ready to give birth and not have that ob deliver my baby? Because every time I goto the hospital they always wanna contact my ob provider and tbh she sucks!!! I’m in the middle of trying to find a new provider but I’m on Medicaid so it’s kind of not that easy :/

Transitioning to SAHM

Hey guys! I was just wondering about how to transition into a SAHM after working for so long. What was it like for you? My husband is training for the fire academy and we talked a lot about me becoming a SAHM. While I know we would be just fine if I did, I can’t help but wonder if I will be comfortable doing it? I’ve always worked (currently a Vet tech) but my husband going into firefighting will make it a bit complicated to find someone to watch out daughter when he is away. Any advice or ideas?
